My Best Friend with Wings is a creative non-fiction memoir.
It was an independent and deeply personal three-year project.
In February of 2010, one of my best friends passed away. He had been an artistic guy who inspired creativity in those around him, and after he died, I knew I wanted to do something to honor his memory. In November of that year, I began writing... intending to give the world a chance to see him as I had seen him. Inadvertently, the story became a tale of my inability to come to terms with his death, and by writing it, I found my own path to acceptance. While the content is personal, I believe readers will connect with the narrative themes of loss and avoidance.
The completed work has been digitally self-published exclusively through Amazon: http://mybestfriendwithwings.com

While dealing with the prejudices many other students have against him, he must learn that sometimes there will be a person to trust. But can he learn to trust them before a horrible threat comes? {This story comes before events in A Guide To Lost Creatures, so it would be best to finish this book first before reading that one since there are character crossovers}Hoàn thành

This is My Life
I've been very depressed and heartbroken so, what better than to create a story out of it? "This is my life" details a protagonist going through her teenage years up until the age of 21. Through love, friendship, grief, and heartbreak, you will get to witness what it's like being a young black girl trying to conquer the world. I hope anyone going through either heartbreak, grief, insecurities, mental health declines are able to read this and know that they're not alone! Life can be so ugly at times, but I promise things always get better. Not your typical romance or teen fiction book! My real life experience with fiction added :) Returning from my six year hiatus with a new book....my bad.Hoàn thành![His Butterfly [Edited]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/278554630-256-k128193.jpg)
His Butterfly [Edited]
In the world we are living in, everyone experiences love once; a true love. Our life is the same as a journey where people leave their stories behind, some bitter and some sweet. Some of them are lessons and some motivation. We learn about ourselves, our path, our desires, our happiness, our sadness and... our regrets. Like anyone else, we had a story in this journey of life. A story of friendship, a story of love, the story of a... Butterfly. I wish I could tell you how much you were important to me, I wish I could tell you how much I loved you and would have done anything to make you stay. You came like a Butterfly into my life, colorizing my dull life, and left like one so soon that it hurt. Mine and forever, my beautiful Butterfly, my Harmony. Love, your AxelHoàn thành
Tales of A Tortured Poet
A collection of the things I can't seem to say. The things that plague some of us at 2am, a bitter goodbye, a loving hello, lost friendships, and identities. I'm just a recovering addict trying to navigate the minefield that is reality.
WHEN THE RAIN FORGOT TO FALL
I wrote this because I needed to survive it. Because there are some feelings too big for silence. Some heartbreaks too heavy to carry alone. This isn't fiction. This is my heart, broken open and rearranged into verse. "I saw you standing where the sidewalk curves, and suddenly my chest knew different words." - That's how it started. A glance. A stranger. A feeling I couldn't ignore. "You said we needed to talk. Those five words, I knew. I already knew." - And that's how it ended. Not with fire. With silence. I won't tell you that time heals all wounds. I won't say everything happens for a reason. I won't pretend heartbreak makes you stronger. But I will show you that: You can survive what you think will destroy you. You can break and still become beautiful. You can love someone and lose them and still be whole. You can be your own happy ending. I wrote these poems with tears on my face. I wrote them on good days when I forgot to hurt. Every word is something I actually felt. Every line is a moment I actually lived. "You are not broken. You are breaking open. And that's where the light gets in." - That's what this taught me. That's what I hope it gives you, the comfort of knowing you're not alone.Hoàn thành
